A disorder that causes you to irrationally feed your insatiable lust of, power and possession. A disorder that feeds in a circular fashion, and is spurred on by pure illusion, more money more stuff, more money, more stuff, until it ultimately consumes you, your family, your friends, your land and your country.
So we'll put right on the shelf...next to vanity!!!
Is it like hoarding, perhaps? Out of control acquisition that never satisfies, and attachment that prevents giving away, selling, or sharing what has been acquired...the overwhelming feeling that the hoard is needed and and an emotional attachment to it...
agreed!
interesting point. and the bible says its a sin (one of the 7 deadly ones). whether or not greed is an illness, did you see this reply to that wall st workers letter? i am passing it around cos its so good!

Actually the concept of the "7 deadly sins" is in no way biblical. Though you are correct that the bible, and christ in particular, speak at length against greed.
